Randy Braband was an impact player. Ask any running back who ever collided with this intense Texas defender. In his three Cotton Bowl Classic appearances and two as the Longhorns' starting linebacker, Braband recorded 33 tackles, 19 of them came in the Horns’ thrilling 17-13 defeat of fourth-ranked Alabama in 1973. It was a dominating performance by the senior defensive captain. However, there was one tackle that stood well above all the others. On fourth down and inches at the Texas 43, Braband crashed through the line of scrimmage and stood up the Crimson Tide running back, driving him back for a yard loss. Only 1:52 was left to play when the savvy Texas linebacker made this stirring defensive play to slam the door on Alabama’s comeback hopes. There was just no getting around Randy Braband.
